Body

BACKGROUND

 

This action does not authorize or encumber funding. The master agreement establishes pre-negotiated pricing for a specified period of time. Actual expenditures will occur only when goods/products are requested and are supported by available departmental appropriations. The estimated amount represents the maximum anticipated value based on all potential usage scenarios during the contract term and is provided for planning purposes only. Actual expenditures may vary significantly and will be driven by operational needs. For reference, the City's average annual expenditure for over the past three years has been approximately $3,650,000.00 per year.

 

These master agreements will allow for the purchase of emergency and non-emergency medical supplies for citywide use. Various City departments require medical supplies to support operational, safety, and public service needs. These agreements will establish reliable sources on as needed basis for routine restocking, first aid kits, and emergency preparedness.

 

 

 

 

The Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (BuyBoard) agreement and the Omnia Partners cooperative agreement are authorized by Chapter 791 of the Texas Government Code and Subchapter F, Chapter 271, Texas Local Government Code.  Section 271.102 of the Texas Local Government Code which authorizes a local government to participate in a Cooperative Purchasing Program with another local government or a local cooperative organization.

 

PRIOR ACTION/REVIEW (COUNCIL, BOARDS, COMMISSIONS)

 

On June 28, 2023, the City Council authorized a three-year master agreement for the purchase of emergency and non-emergency medical supplies for the Fire-Rescue Department with Medline Industries, Inc. and Henry Schein, Inc. through the Omnia Partners cooperative agreement; and a three-year master agreement for the purchase of emergency and non-emergency medical supplies for the Fire-Rescue Department with Bound Tree Medical, LLC and Life-Assist, Inc. through the Local Government Purchasing Cooperative (BuyBoard) agreement by Resolution No. 23-0900.
